Explanation:

Data and Calculations:

April's budgeted cost of goods sold = $79,000

Inventory Purchases Budget     January   February    March      April

Budgeted cost of goods sold  $ 60,000  $ 64,000  $ 70,000  $79,000

Plus: Desired ending inventory    6,400        7,000        7,900

Inventory needed                       66,400       71,000      77,900

Less: Beginning inventory           9,000         6,400       7,000

Purchases (on account)         $ 57,400    $ 64,600  $ 70,900

Cost of goods sold for the first quarter = $194,000 (60,000 + 64,000 + 70,000)

Ending Inventory at the end of the first quarter = 10% of $79,000 = $7,900
